When I googled my first and last name, I found out that I am a Professor of Biochemistry, I have published a cooking book, I am an early 20th century artist, I am an instructor at the Columbia University's teachers college and I am also a doctor/lecturer in law.

Using my married name I found out that I am an actress, I offer lifestyle management counselling, I am an artist that posts on artwanted.com, and I am the founder of Meals on Wheels!

When I googled DH's first and last name, I found out that he is a current member of Scottish Parliment, assistant professor with a department of biology, and he's an Australian resident that likes posting reviews on Amazon.

And when we google our business name, we come up all over the place! :)

Cool!

Note: When you google your name use apostrophes ie "firstname lastname"

Under my maiden name, I found that I am a professor of French, which is kind of funny considering that I could be if I had stuck with the french!!!

There's nothing under my maiden name at all ~ not really surprising considering the mex is not common.

When I look up DH, I get a whole bunch of links to a website in India (his name is common there) and I also get a link to OneWed!!!

I just get pages and pages of people who have my name, but are not me. Onewed is nowhere to be found. But if I Google MOB Karen, Onewed is the first thing to pop up. Interesting...

I have done alot of plays in NJ. Did a bunch of track and field back in 01 and 02. and my dad was paralyzed in a car accident :huh: (glad thats not me,sorry 4 who it was though) and shows my onewed journal.

When I type in my future name it just turns out I go or have gone to a bunch of high schools. And this is interesting I was going to be in a play called "The Divorce Play" but 10 days before it started I got whiplash in a car accident so someone else took my place.

kinda makes me want to avoid cars.

"Elizabeth Perkins" yields the actress, which I all ready knew it would...

"Elizabeth Davis" yields a woman who explores the "Sacred Feminine" and also another less known actress.

Using my married name I found an article I wrote (really) and published to an ezine.

Then I found out that I was MOH at some girl named Sara's wedding.

And apparently I am Gina Gershon's biggest fan.

Using my maiden name, apparently I graduated from Hanover College in 2003 and continued on to Spalding University in the Fall in their Psy.D. program.

Apparently I my madien name is in some 1966 Historical Scrapbook, the rest is people who have different first names but the same last name as me.
When I type in my future name I came up with a bunch of type that I couldn't change to english text.
When I typed in my FH name I came up with A hockey player in the University of Iowa in Dec. 2005 that made a pretty good run of thingsfor his team. HEHE I found a pic of him painting some church was actually him. Some one in MO who is registered as a American quality air control person.
Thats all I could find.
That was pretty interesting thanks

When I googled my name, it asks if I meant another last name, which I thought was funny.

Anyhow I got-
-The real me came up quite a few times from the dean's list at my college
-I got married in 1868 (obviously not me! :))
-A bunch of historical data because my name (elizabeth) is a family name and so like all of my ancestors are also elizabeth XXXXXX, and all the immigration data comes up
-My cousin, who is also elizabeth XXXXXX, is into gymnastics, so her website came up
-My uncle, whose name is mark but has the same last name, rides bicycles and is part of a bunch of bicycles website, so those all came up because of the last name.

When I googled my future married name I found out that I would be a journalist who has a building named after her on the TCU campus because she and another woman were the dean of women there for 40 years. It houses a bunch of sorority girls.

I didn't find anything under my maiden name, but under my married name I am a renowned painter as well as a designer, of jewelry.

Actually I looked around her website and her jewelry is beautiful. Here's the website if anyone would like to look at it.

I found undergraduate academic awards for me. They really are my awards too.
